Most successful brands include a team of creatives, operational strategists, and savvy sales leads. Developing that team can be a challenge. It typically starts with questions regarding how to set up the working relationship between the brand and the new teammates.

The new teammates typically fall into one of these categories: employee, independent contractor (freelancer), or intern.

Catherine Smith, Partner at K&L Gates, LLP, an international law firm with a Fashion Law practice group, will discuss the important topics to address in the team building process during our upcoming webinar that will help you confidently include new teammates in your brand. Catherine will provide overviews of:

• Hiring Considerations

• Wage and Hour Requirements for Employees

• Overtime Exemptions for Employees

• Interns

• Employing Minors

• Independent Contractor Requirements

The discussion regarding independent contractors will specifically cover models, stylists, makeup artists, special event workers, and creative content contributors such as social media, photography, and copy writers.
